GJ16C Hydrostatic Tester Core Introduction
The GJ16C adopts embedded PC cluster modular control architecture, each test station equipped with independent microcontroller for separate pressure regulation without mutual interference. The system supports real-time pressure & temperature curve display, automatic pipe rupture identification, power-off data storage and one-click test report printing, covering two core test types:
- Long-term constant pressure failure test (per ISO 1167 / ASTM D1598)
- Instant hydraulic burst test (per GB/T15560 / ASTM D1599)
Key Technical Specifications
- Applicable pipe diameter: DN16 ~ DN1600
- Standard test channels: 3 expandable stations (max 30 modules for single mainframe)
- Pressure range: 0.4–16MPa, switchable MPa / PSI / bar units
- Pressure control accuracy: -1% ~ +2%, display resolution 0.001MPa
- Timing range: 0~9999h59m59s, timing precision ±0.1%
- Independent accumulator pressure stabilization for each channel, fast response to stabilize pressure
Standout Product Advantages of GJ16C Main Control Unit
- Fully Modular Expandable Design Each station works as an independent control module; single-channel failure will not interrupt other ongoing tests. Users freely increase/decrease test stations according to production capacity, easy later upgrade and daily maintenance.
- Global Sourced High-End Core Parts German GER solenoid valves, UK Barnes pressure transmitters, Taiwan high-pressure plunger pumps ensure long-term stable high precision under 16MPa working pressure. Multi-stage accumulator setup extends valve service life and eliminates pressure fluctuation.
- Multi-Language Human-Machine Interface 17.3-inch industrial touch tablet supports Chinese & English dual display, real-time synchronized data of set pressure, actual pressure, remaining time, tank temperature for all stations on one page, no need to switch submenus.
- Comprehensive Safety Protection Built-in leakage, short circuit, static interference, power failure and misoperation protection; automatic data backup when power cuts off, data resumes after power recovery.
- Diversified Test Compatibility Supports static aging, instantaneous burst and hydrothermal stability tests for all thermoplastic pipes; single circuit can switch test modes flexibly.
Matching 304 Stainless Steel Thermostatic Water Tank
The dedicated constant temperature water tank forms a complete test set with the GJ16C host, providing stable temperature environment for long-term hydrostatic testing from 20°C to 95°C (optional refrigeration module for low-temperature testing).
Tank Core Features
- Full 304 stainless steel inner & outer tank, 85mm thick multi-layer insulation layer, power consumption reduced by over 70% when heated to 95°C, outer shell stays near room temperature.
- Pneumatic flip tank cover with dual cylinder buffer, silicone sealing strip to prevent high-temperature steam leakage.
- German large-flow circulating pump (135L/min), spray circulation structure for uniform water temperature inside the tank, temperature control accuracy ±1°C.
- Rear vertical heating structure, convenient maintenance without stopping test; optional automatic water replenishment to avoid pump dry burning damage.
- Complete overflow and bottom drainage structure, RS232 data communication to sync temperature data to main control PC.
- Customizable inner cavity size and port quantity according to customer pipe diameter demands, compatible with DN16–DN1600 specimens.
Supporting Type A Radial Sealing Pipe Fixtures
Baoruitong self-developed patented 304 stainless steel end sealing fixtures are matched for the whole system, suitable for PE, PVC, PP-R, steel-reinforced composite pipes up to DN1600.
Fixture Advantages
- Radial non-tie rod sealing structure, precision cast stainless steel body, pickling passivation anti-corrosion treatment, maximum bearing pressure 16MPa.
- Automatic centering segmented clamping blocks, clamping then sealing process ensures zero leakage during long-time high-pressure testing.
- Independent lifting structure, no extra support frame required; Φ200 below fixtures assemble within 10 minutes, large DN1600 fixtures finish setup under 30 minutes.
- Four-legged base keeps pipes stable inside thermostatic tank; replaceable silicone sealing gaskets for different pipe outer diameters.
